[Vwdiesel] Hillbilly Tuning

Interesting thought Bob.  You might want to check plumbing/water
treatment sites for such a transponder.  I know that all kinds of
"in-pipe" measuring devices are available for the automation of water
treatment facilities, swimming pools, that sort of thing.

The automatic advance is pushed by a piston which responds to internal
pump pressure. 
The manual advance lever does not reach full advance. It is only for
cold starts. To advance timing fully, you would need to open the pump
where the manual advance lever is mounted (two screws) and push the
advance piston all the way in. Starting engine at this point would pour
fuel out opening, so this is probably not a good idea. 
Also, pump internal pressure may be low due to worn parts so final
advance may not be reached any ways. 
I've been trying to think of some way to check timing like on a gasser
with a timing light. Maybe some kind of pressure transponder on number
one injector pipe? Transponder could then trigger a strobe light to view
timing marks on a crank or pump mounted degree wheel.
Any thoughts on this?

Good Question!
I have no clue how the automatic device works. But the key is to make it
go full advance.
